Great Things in Brenham: Blue Bell nearly doubling size of 'little creamery' [View all]

Last edited Sat Jan 5, 2013, 01:13 AM - Edit history (1)



Whatever it might say for the economy, Blue Bell Ice Cream is hot.

Now sold in 20 states, the product is selling so well that Blue Bell Creameries has begun a $14 million expansion of its Brenham plant, said Paul Prazak, manager of plant operations.

It's the first major expansion since the early 1990s at the Brenham facility about 70 miles northwest of Houston, Prazak said.

"Ice cream has held really well during the last several years, and our business has greatly increased," Prazak said.
